It's common practice in the schools and universities in Japan to operate on 50 % capacity if the infection rate is high. There are strict mask mandates, social distancing and temperature checks are enforced. Knowledge source: I'm a professor at a University in Tokyo. Nobody can enter campus without a mask and temperature check (not even me, the door to my floor has a facial recognition /thermal check). Social distancing is also enforced by teachers and staff. There is a max student cap for each room (that his about 30 % of the maximum capacity). For schools: several of my friends have kids attending elementary school in Tokyo. Yes, there is a lot of orientalism going on hackernews. lol. https://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/news/20220107_37/ https://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/news/20220107_37/
